I haven’t touched a cigarette or any alcohol in five days. Wish I could feel truly proud. Instead, I bash myself for finding it so hard to keep it up.

I’m on day 5, too! Congrats to us! I don’t know why it’s hard, but it is. And I’m irritated at myself for obsessing about it. I keep coming back to - it’s not my fault that it’s hard. Nobody chooses to be addicted to anything…who would? It’s miserable. All we can do is make the next right choice and be proud of that.

Then I will be ‘truly proud’ for you. Many of us here are having a hard time giving up one vice! You’re juggling two, that’s commendable!

Thank you both for your kind words. It helps to know we are all fighting for a good cause. Must admit though I didn’t think I’d feel this lonely when I quit. Apparently there’s a lot of unresolved emotions behind the smokescreen. How do you deal with it? I’m thinking of ways to help myself work through these emotions, and am looking for inspitation/insights. Any suggestion is more than welcome. <3
